Drag Race’s fifth season, capping off a hilarious and herstorical run, we had one question for RuPaul: “Do we have time for one more?”Nearly 10 years later, Mama Ru finally gave us what we wanted: another marvelous season of Jinkx on our television screens!Yes, in many ways, All Stars 7 has been a fever dream.
In reuniting eight of the franchise’s past winning queens—and then switching up the format by not eliminating anyone until the very end—the show has delivered week after week of top-tier drag.Through it all, the “internationally tolerated drag queen superstar” we know as Jinkx has slayed the competition like water off a duck’s back.
She announced her frontrunner status loud and clear with a one-two punch of a Snatch Game, and then kept performing at that impossibly high bar (give or take a design challenge), earning the most challenge wins of the season and whole new legion of fervent fans in the process.In the end, the Legendary Legend emerged victorious once again, our Queen Of All Queens.
As she claimed the crown “in the name of Hecate, mother of witches,” Jinkx solidified herself as a truly singular talent, one whose spirit and heart shines as a testament to the power of drag.So how did she celebrate?
